Wilfried Bony wants £200,000-a-week to sign for Manchester City

Manchester City will have to offer Wilfried Bony £200,000-a-week to bring the Swansea striker to the champions, according to The Sun

The Swans record buy has nine goals in his last 15 games and would help replace the injured Sergio Aguero, but only at a premium price.

City have reportedly offered the Ivorian star £70,000-a-week, but Bony is holding out for almost three times that amount before he signs on at the Etihad.

Bony is 'well aware' that his Ivory Coast countryman and friend Yaya Toure, who will be heading to the Africa Cup of Nations alongside the Swansea striker, is currently on £240,000-a-week and the Swansea striker isn't willing to settle for less than £200,000.

Amazingly, the figure that Bony is requesting is four times his current wage at Swansea. The 26-year-old is on around £50,000 a week at the Welsh club.
